Description
Original US pressing on the steamboat Reprise label (RS 6311) from 1968. The cover is in excellent- condition (taped upper seam) and the record is in near mint condition.
The Holy Mackerel was a loosely shifting organization (early Jefferson Airplane bassist Bob Harvey and Buffalo Springfield drummer Dewey Martin were among its members) but at it's heart was Paul Williams song writing in pop, country and psychedelic directions with the help of future platinum producer Richard Perry. The 1968 result was a record that should have sold a lot more copies than it did; the band broke up right after its release and Reprise didn't promote it, but be sure to catch it this time around.
Though the album bears some of the pop smarts that would characterize Williams's '70s work, it is a product of its time: a psychedelic pop-rock outing with swirling melodies, Eastern influenced modalities, reverb and phaser effects, and high-flown harmonies. It's a fun, pleasurable listen...
